I know Ygwhi will champion on Kiwi's behalf for any perceived slight but I don't even understand what the perceived slight is. I think he's more countering your arguments that Kawhi is complaining about his teammates, but honestly... at this point I don't know what he's talking about.

I do not recall saying Kawhi is complaining about his teammates. Although I wonder, I don't know. I have engaged in some speculative discussions about how he might feel and whether he does have any input with PATFO...

Not during the regular season.

Pop's history is rolling the trash right into the playoffs, watching the crappy vets get destroyed, c finally panicking once they get too far behind, and then playing the rookie in desperation.

Hill, Splitter, Boban. And it would have happened with Stephen Jackson in 2002 but the rules were different and Jackson was forced to be inactive for the playoffs in my memory is right. Instead Porter was left to fall down and Steve Smith be wreckage.

But if they miss the playoffs Pop won't have the chance to do his usual schtick.

I am really wondering what it will take for them to open their eyes that Patty Mills should not be closing games. I am kind of wondering if continuing the humiliation in an epic losing streak while continuing to play Patty the most minutes and have him closing games, getting plays called for him and have him failing repeatedly is the only way for them to see it but it might not work.
